Instead of parsing out or establishing the omissions (or not) in Evan's post above, I'd like to hear more about the almost "fist fight" with your buyer. Inquiring minds want to know. |

Thanks for pointing out my omissions as to the nitty gritty fine details. However, no matter how far we dig, parse, peel, slice, dice or expose to microscopic examination and evaluation will there ever be any trace of Chebby power in any Shelby Cobra.
Lets not try to turn silk into a sows ear. Yes, I reversed it.

The 221 may have been used for fitting, but it never made it in the car that was born in Moon's shop, or driven by the press, or displayed at car shows, or that ever dreaded thing called 'production'.
But, if it makes you feel better, I'll add the 221 to the list of engines I'd rather have than a Chevy.
All in good fun.

Who really gives an $hit about political correctness and Chevy-powered Cobras. Evan is not an idiot for expressing his views on replicas and Cobra buyers/builders can do what ever they want to their Cobras, because they have freedom of expression as well.
No one here in the USA says we all have to get the same haircut.
I want to know more about Thor's sale that almost went sour and who almost got "clocked." |
